Hi, I'm Kalem. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania and see clients virtually throughout the state. I work with clients with a variety of concerns. I love helping people with anxiety face their fears and discover strengths they didn’t know they had. I’m passionate about teaching practical, research-backed skills to climb out of depression, one day at a time. And I’m excited to be part of your journey to reinterpret the past and create an authentic, sustainable future if you’re someone late-diagnosed or neurodivergent. You can expect a few things from me as your therapist.
Part of my role is to be a cheerleader. Someone to help you stay encouraged and find hope and strength when you feel defeated. Another is to hold up a mirror and help you better understand yourself. Most of all you can expect our session to be a safe place. Think of therapy as rehearsal for real life – only no one’s going to boo you off the stage.
Recovery doesn’t mean we’re never depressed or anxious again. Through therapy, we can learn how to meet the moment, create a life worth living, and equip ourselves with the skills to meet challenges head-on. Wherever your recovery takes you, therapy can help you rediscover your strengths and learn how to be the most you.

I work with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and trauma. In our work, we'll explore how you got to where you are. By exploring your past from a new perspective, you can better understand yourself - the choices you've made and the way you think. This wisdom creates space and opportunity to choose a different path forward in your life and relationships.

I use a variety of approaches that help create emotional awareness, learn to tolerate and even welcome discomfort, and live authentically. Growing as a therapist means constantly learning, embracing new techniques and skills, and bringing this into our work.
